Chapter 176: Veteran
When Zhou Xiuying arrived at the battlefield, he happened to see the banner of the Tai (Ping) Independent Battalion, and the sound of guns and cannons was endless. ”
Zhou Xiuying was a little incomprehensible: "Camp Commander Shi, how is the situation ahead?" ”
Shi Huiji scolded: "It's the main force of the Qing Demon, Taizhou Xiecheng guards the third battalion, and also coerces some regimental bravery, and our two companies have already entangled them!" ”
Looking at the battlefield, this is not the case at all, although Shi Huiji entangled the Qing army on the opposite side, but the entire battalion was also entangled by the Qing army on the opposite side, the Qing army really deserved to be the city defense camp, temporarily using a small number of existing old barracks nearby to urgently build simple barracks and fortifications, and with the nearby villages to defend, although the two companies of the independent battalion have made progress in attacking, they can not retreat.
"Is it Chen Shizhong's main force?" Zhou Xiuying's interest came: "It seems that you still have to appear Lu Ziyun!" ”
Lu Ziyun has already cheered up: "No problem, our cattle knife battalion is used as a cattle knife to kill chickens, and Camp Commander Shi can rest assured,"
The tone of his words was a little arrogant, the independent battalion had been fighting for so long, and it didn't solve the Qing army in front of him, and it was really the level of the independent battalion.
He didn't know that Shi Huiji left the two veteran platoons to Feng Sixian, and the Huangyan Independent Company also stayed in Huangyan County, and the real old troops were only one and a half companies, and now the combat effectiveness of the entire army has been affected to a certain extent.
Zhou Xiuying can be regarded as brave and strategic, she shouted: "I let the horse team on the left flank attack!" ”
As soon as she gave her order, countless dust was raised on the entire left flank, and the Qing army in the left flank camp immediately bombarded it with guns and cannons, and the last bullet was hit, but taking advantage of this period of effort, Lu Ziyun's cattle knife battalion had already pressed up.
They advanced fifty or sixty paces before being suppressed by the Qing army's serial guns, and the two sides started a shootout, and soon the Qing army was suppressed in the gunfight, and they set off again, but after walking another twenty steps, a row of serial guns sounded in front of them.
Lu Ziyun's Oxknife Battalion also has a large number of recruits, and Zhou Xiuying left him only a platoon and a company directly under the old foundation of this battalion, if it weren't for the help of the Nanxi Battalion, he wouldn't even be able to form the Niudao Battalion.
But even so, a large number of recruits also greatly reduced the combat effectiveness of the entire Cattle Knife Battalion, and the three infantry companies rushed in three waves one after another, and in the end they could only capture a small half of the village, but they soon joined up with a company of the independent battalion, and the two troops attacked together, and pushed the battlefield forward by dozens of meters.
It's just that they quickly got the latest information from the mouths of the captives: "You are the Ninghai battalion? ”
The two infantry battalions attacked a city garrison battalion of the Taizhou Association and the Ninghai battalion, and in addition to this, there were more than 200 regimental warriors who came from the coercion, with a total of no less than 13,400, and they could defend with villages and barracks, so the two infantry battalions with a large number of recruits fought very reluctantly.
"Battalion Commander Zhou, immediately tell this Xiao'er to the inspection point" Lu Ziyun sent his own herald to convey the news: "This Chen Shizhong is really a veteran!" The offense and defense are quite orderly! ”
Although Chen Shizhong was already crazy, it was only after the two sides joined the battle that he showed the demeanor of a veteran, and shouted loudly on the horse: "Order the Ninghai battalion to shrink slightly to the right, and the left battalion is like ..."
He was a veteran of the Taiping army near Nanjing, and he was much more experienced than the new officers of the Rainbow army, and within an hour of the battle, he had already built a simple but very reliable defensive line.
Although he firmly believed that Gao Liangcai was still holding out in the county, his current arrangement was mainly tactical defense, and it was not limited to defense, and from time to time he let his reserves be pulled out to fight. …,
"Nanxi camp up!"
"Dragon Lance Battalion up,"
"Thunder is up!"
"Rock Camp up!"
Soon the Rainbow Army threw in one new company after another, and although a small number of troops were still on the way, the entire Rainbow Army immediately launched an attack on this hastily organized Qing Army Green Battalion Army.
is really a veteran,
Liu Chang couldn't help but exclaim: "Everyone pay attention, you must watch this Qing army, and you can't let any of them go,"
One hill after another was captured by the Rainbow Army, and one room after another was taken by the Rainbow Army's thunderous offensive, but Liu Chang found that the whole battle situation was not satisfactory on the horse.
Although the battle is now developing in a good direction, these green battalion soldiers led by Chen Shizhong are really the last troops in Taizhou that are still worthy of a war, and there are some rules for attack and defense.
Although this has something to do with the large number of recruits in the Rainbow Army, now Chen Shizhong has made up his mind and resolutely fights back against the Rainbow Army.
Chen Shizhong immediately felt that he had never been in such a good state, he issued orders loudly, from time to time he personally held a green flag to boost the morale of the green battalion soldiers, and sometimes personally urged the defeated remnants to regroup and launch a counterattack.
Although the whole battle situation is developing in a worse and worse direction, and the more than 3,000 soldiers brought out by Chen Shizhong have fought bravely until now, and there are only 18,900 people left, but there is such a veteran who immediately risked his life to supervise the battle, and the entire green battalion soldiers can still defend until now.
The Rainbow Army's offensive was like a frenzy, but no matter what kind of frenzy it was, Chen Shizhong was like a reef in the sea, as if he was the last veteran to die on the battlefield.
Chen Shizhong once again waved the green flag to drive a group of newly defeated green battalion soldiers to press out, and he waved the green flag so vigorously that many soldiers used their flintlock pistols to blast towards his war horse, but after a puff of white smoke, the veteran was still majestic on his horse!
He shouted loudly to Liu Chang on the horse: "Rong Ma has been in his career for decades, if he can return the horse leather shroud today, he will have no regrets, and Liu will not be at home." ”
Chen Shizhong roared angrily: "If Chen Shizhong, the chief soldier of Huangyan Town, dies here today, find a good coffin for me!" ”
After speaking, Hongjun released another round of guns, but this Chen Shizhong was unscathed with divine help, and Liu Chang couldn't help but sigh on the horse behind: "You don't have to stay alive, find a few Mini rifles!" ”
He had already seen that the reason why these seventeen or eight hundred green battalion soldiers had not collapsed was because of this Chen Shizhong, who seemed to have gone crazy, and he maintained the last fighting spirit of these green battalion soldiers with his crazy destructive power.
"Check" Zhou Xiuying has already rushed over with the cavalry battalion, and her cavalry battalion is of little use in this kind of attack and battle of villages and camps: "I think it is better to drive sheep to the north!" ”
"To the north?" Liu Chang hesitated: "Forced them out of the village and the barracks?" ”
Zhou Xiuying waved her saber in horror: "That's right, force them out of the fortifications, drive them all the way to the north, and rush to Linhai!" ”
"Good!" Liu Chang felt that this was a good idea: "Order the troops in the north to relax their offensive a little, and the battalions will step up their attacks and drive this flock of sheep to Linhai!" ”
As he was talking, the latest news had already come from there: "Wan Junlian has caught up!" ”
Wan Jun Company is a siege heavy artillery company, Liu Chang nodded and said: "The cavalry battalion is temporarily serving as a guard battalion, and the second tun of Jinchang"
As Liu Ti's guard company, the soldiers of Jintang's second company cheered and saluted Liu Chang: "Obey orders." ”
Liu Chang said to Zhou Xiuying's cavalry again: "You go back and tell Feng Sixian Zhixian County, tell him that our army is ready to continue to attack Linhai, and is ready to take the capital city in one fell swoop, so that he can strengthen his guard." ”…,
If the combat mission was changed from annihilating Chen Shizhong's main force to not only annihilating Chen Shizhong's troops, but also driving the rest of Chen Shizhong's troops to Linhai City, and he took advantage of the situation to attack Linhai City in one fell swoop, then the duration of the battle would be greatly extended, and he must inform Feng Sixian of the changes on the battlefield in time.
Zhou Xiuying had already held down the saber, and she was ready to cut it down at any time.
Although this old goat is good at fighting, but in the end, it must be her Zhou Xiuying who gave Chen Shizhong a fatal blow.
She has that confidence.
At this time, Su Jingrong had already stood up with a smile to greet Shao Bingzhao, and as soon as he met, he excitedly grabbed Shao Bingzhao's hand: "Old Shao, you are working hard this time, I am looking forward to the stars and the moon and looking forward to your news, if you can break the red thief this time, Lao Shao, you should be the first to come, sit down and have a drink!" ”
Shao Bingzhao hurried over, his hair was soaked with sweat beads as if it had been poured by rain, he put the teacup on the coffee table, sat on the chair and breathed a long sigh of relief, and then said the first sentence: "Gao Liang is a thief." ”
This news is insignificant to Su Jingrong, but for Shao Bingzhao, it is the most important first big thing, Su Jingrong patted him on the shoulder, and said repeatedly: "Don't worry, don't worry, don't be in a hurry to say it slowly." ”
Mu Yinan next to him was anxious: "How many thieves are there in Huangyan City?" ”
Shao Bingzhao came for this: "The main force of the red thieves went out of the city to fight Chen Zhentai, and said that they would capture Chen Zhentai alive and level the whole of Taizhou, and there were only 400 red thieves left in the city, among which there were still 60 Guangyong people in a team of Gao Liangcai, and there were only 300 real red thieves. ”
He was just a scrivener in Huangyan County, and now that military control was in place in the county, it was remarkable to know so much about it.
And Su Jingrong was as comfortable as eating ginseng fruit when he heard this, he leaned back in the chair with his eyes closed, and asked Mu Yinan: "There are only four hundred red thieves, and there are only three hundred real red thieves, and this is a godsend." ”
Mu Yinan asked: "Four hundred red thieves, it can be broken at will, but how many regiments can we gather to attack Huangyan County, and I can mobilize four hundred brave soldiers on my side, how about you?" ”
"My side?" Su Jingrong turned to Shao Bingzhao: "Is the number of four hundred true?" ”
Shao Bingzhao immediately replied: "It's true, there is absolutely no falsehood, this is the number asked from our yamen kitchen, they only need to make 400 meals for the red thief at noon this year." ”
"That's fine, that's fine." Su Jingrong immediately stood up, her eyes were sharp: "There are only four hundred red thieves, Mu Yinan, you have four hundred fighting courage in your hands, and I also have six hundred good men in my hands, but I have never used a knife to kill chickens, since Liu Jiehu has exposed such a big flaw in the back road, then I can only blame me for being polite!" ”
"Let's see me slaughter four hundred red thieves with forty thousand bravery." )
